This after seemingly referring to the interview he gave to GQ that prompted the initial media backlash. According to Radar Online, Robertson boasted: "[The news media] thought I was just mouthing off. Is homosexual behavior a sin? The guy asked me."

The sermon won applause from churchgoers but will probably cause another media uproar.

Robertson's previous comments resulted in A&E supsending him from the family's show "Duck Dynasty," a reality show that grew in popularity for its traditional family and Christian values. (Via A&E / "Duck Dynasty")

Fans quickly defended the "Duck Dynasty" patriarch, and A&E later rescinded its decision. But still, the show has seen a dip in ratings since the ordeal.

TVLine reports about 3.5 million fewer viewers tuned in to the season five premiere this January compared to the 12 million who tuned in to last season's premiere.
